    Is there any "film buff" youtuber that talks about movies other then Superheroes and Star Wars?

    Wait what? I missed Rossatron's Adkins video? Sweet. Now I have something else to fill time until Triple Threat comes out... if it ever does. On topic: A couple of channels that I enjoy are Movies with Mikey and Patrick (H) Willems. They do have superhero movie videos, but they do a lot...

    Things you used to hate that you now love

    Subtitles I used to be all "If I wanted to read, I'd crack a book". Recently, my son and I have been watching a lot of DTV foreign martial arts films with Iko Uwais, Tony Jaa, Marko Zaror, Donnie Yen, etc. This didn't bother me as much because you're mostly there to watch the sweet fights...

    Discuss and Rate the Last Thing You Watched (non-movies)

    Castle Rock I'm watching this as it comes out right now. It's based on a town established in Stephen King novels. The first several episodes are pretty slow but the music and atmosphere are such that it doesn't bother me, though some may be turned off by this. I think it's about halfway...

    What would be considered "Too Picky/Selective" when dating (or in a relationship)?

    Having had a ton of crumby relationships before, one even ending in divorce... Well, if there's anything I've learned... Shit... Just make sure your partner has a decent credit score. There's nothing worse than being emotionally attached to someone who is financially irresponsible...

    Idris Elba reportedly being considered for next James Bond

    Elba is like the smoothest dude in the world. He should be Bond, Indiana Jones, the next Logan, and also my dad.

    Poll: Poll: Forrest Gump vs Shawshank Redemption vs Pulp Fiction.

    While I agree wholeheartedly, The Stuff came out in 1985... Wait. Don't tell me that they remade The Stuff... DO NOT TELL ME THAT THEY REMADE THE STUFF!

    Poll: Is Far Cry 2 a Cult Classic now?

    We don't often agree, though I've never vocalized it, but we do on this. Far Cry 2 is definitely my favorite one. I spent the most time in it's world by a long shot.

    The defenders 2 not on the cards.

    I agree with all of this with one exception. I always like Sigourney Weaver on a screen regardless of the circumstances.

    I'm going to miss you people when the Escapist shuts down.

    I agree. This has been a pretty good place for lurking.

    Poll: Nintendo to make new Mario film with Despicable Me studio

    I'm sure it will be fun for kids, but I doubt I get anything out of it. I could be wrong and I hope to be, but I'll keep my expectations in check for the time being.

    So Monster Hunter World

    I've been having a blast with it. I really enjoy facing a monster and having a tough time, then encountering it later when I have much better gear and just shredding it. It does that really well. Also, it looks gorgeous. I really like watching how the monsters interact with each other. I've...

    Please help an old and starving gamer

    I don't actually have any suggestions, but WOW! I had an old Tandy TRS-80 too! I think I played a bunch of those old TSR D&D RPGs on it.

    How could Disney redeem itself from The Last Jedi?

    I don't know about that. I thought TLJ was pretty sweet, myself. It was solid Saturday afternoon entertainment. It's probably my favorite Star Wars movie outside the original trilogy and I'm half tempted to throw it in with them, but I think I should probably give it a few more watches before...

    Nintendo Switch becomes the fastest selling videogame console in US History

    A friend of mine has one and he seems very impressed. I'm just not really into any of the games on it, though I do like the idea of being able to take it with me.
